Good day!
I did a lot of reading yesterday (I couldnt put the book down).
Its time to begin the books final stages. This is all new so theres always the sense that Im missing something.
Im not going to dwell on that.
Thats veiled worrying.
Be everwell.

Good day!
This is it. This is the day.
Im about to do the hike Ive waited years to do.
One problem after another arose: others cancelling, illness, car problems, smoke, & more.
Not this time.

Good day!
I voted yesterday & resolved my drug coverage for 2025.
If all goes well, Ill hike tomorrow before the rain arrives on Monday.
In-between, I at last can focus fully on the book, working on descriptions & blurbs. Im also ahead on blog posts.
Be everwell.

Good day!
Im moving in fast forward this morning. I have an appointment before sunrise.
It froze last night. Its like an unofficial announcement that seasonal change has happened.
Ill walk after the appointment, then a variety of tasks await me.

Good day!
We at last had some rain yesterday. Okay, it was barely drizzle, but it lasted for hours.
Tonight, it might freeze.
Im on the brink of assembling the book for formatting. Having to do this with so much else going on isnt ideal, but life is like that.

Medicare: insurance companies have collectively decided to pay little for my inhaleror not at all. So, my doc has given me possible substitutions.
Insurance runs healthcare.
No anxiety. Instead, anger. Its healthier.
Im also practicing lots of self-care today.

Good day!
How not-so-nice, were having a 2nd smoke season. Its complicating where Ill hike next.
You can be sure Ill figure it out.
Today, Ill search for new Medicare drug coverage since I have to switch. What a pain. Coverage shouldnt be a moving target.

Another unusually mild day, the high again supposed to top 70F/20C. Not for long.
A busy, eclectic writing day planned so that, if the weather cooperates, I can hike on Wednesday.
When a lot comes at me fast, I can become overwhelmed so I try to not procrastinate.
Be everwell.
